Frequently asked

Questions, answered.

  • How long does a search take?

    It depends on the role. We’ll learn what you need, define the role, and guide the search from there. Confidential family office searches can run longer because the candidate pool is smaller and referencing is deeper.

    What does a search cost?

    A percentage of first-year compensation, agreed in writing before the search begins. Advisory and operations work is quoted separately as a fixed fee.

    Do you offer a replacement guarantee?

    Yes. Every placement carries a replacement period, and we run 30, 60 and 90-day check-ins with both sides to catch problems long before they reach that point.

    Can a search stay completely confidential?

    Yes. We run unnamed briefs, tightly controlled candidate lists and NDAs where the family requires them. Candidates are briefed on privacy from first contact.

  • Which roles do you place?

    Household and estate management, executive and personal support, family and childcare, family office operations and finance, and chief of staff roles for founders.

    Do you place outside Georgia?

    Yes. Most searches are in the Southeast, but we run national searches and relocations regularly.

    Do you handle part-time or temporary roles?

    Part-time and rotational roles, yes. Short-term temporary cover is usually better served by a specialist agency, and we will tell you when that is the case.

  • Does candidate support cost anything?

    No. Representation, résumé support, interview preparation and offer guidance are free for candidates.

    Will you submit me without asking?

    Never. You see the full brief and approve every submission before your details go anywhere.

    What if I am not actively looking?

    Join the network anyway. We keep in touch quietly and reach out only when a role genuinely fits.

  • How long is an operations engagement?

    Four to eight weeks for most households: assessment, design, documentation and handover, then a review at 30 and 90 days.

    Can advisory be a single session?

    Yes. Plenty of clients book one working session on structure or compensation and take it from there.

  • Who will I actually work with?

    You work directly with our team from the first conversation — never handed off to an account manager.

    How do you protect our privacy?

    Confidentiality agreements, controlled candidate information, secure document handling and no client names used in marketing without written permission.

  • Where are you based?

    Georgia, United States, working with clients nationally and occasionally internationally.

    How quickly do you reply?
